Following the successful launch of the Kent, Surrey and Sussex Learning Disability Community of Practice, we have been supported to setup a dedicated weblog at a new web address.

What will this mean for you if you are already a follower of the original blog:

You will still be a follower of www.kentlivewell.wordpress.com but you will no longer receive updates from this site. The site will be left running as there are a number of useful items we cannot export to the new site, but it wil not be updated.

If you wish to follow the new web site go to: www.ldcop.org.uk the page that opens should look similar to the below:

If you scroll down the page you will see a “SUBSCRIBE TO BLOG VIA EMAIL” section on the right side which will look like:

Type in your email address and Right click on the “SUBSCRIBE” button, an invite will be sent to your email address to the follow the new blog.
